For sure that's better!
I wanted photos of the combinations but there was nobody around to take photos of me wearing things and no mirror big enough for mirror-selfies.

I've been very happy with this little Joby + remote control for self-portraits with the smart phone.

I got one!
I did take a few pics, it works fine, the only thing is you can sort of see that one of my hands is operating the clicker.
I was thinking of how to tape the clicker to the back of my bagpipe's chanter so I can take pics of myself playing, operating the clicker with the thumb of my lower hand (which isn't doing anything when you're playing).
In any case I just added a Prince Charlie to the mix:

Finally a photo of me wearing the new kilt!
I was piping yesterday for the British American Business Council charity golf tournament.
The outfit includes my 35-year-old Mackie Balmoral, the Cooper & McKenzie (Dundee) Argyll, Cheviot "bison" hose, and 1940s RG Lawrie (Glasgow) pipes.

Looks great! And you look quite pleased with the purchase.
I'm really impressed by how well it looks with the blue, as well.

Thanks!
That kilt jacket is a difficult colour to convey in photos. It's almost grey, with tinges of blue and green, and in some light almost an olive tinge. Very subtle.
I can't get over how beautiful that tartan tweed fabric is.
And I need to take a photo of the pleats, they did a very interesting and nice pleating approach, alternating a brown part of the tartan and a grey part of the tartan. Hunting Stewart has such a huge sett that when you pleat to the stripe you have to alternate. I did say I didn't want the military "catsup & mustard" pleating.
I realise after seeing that photo that I should probably wear my kilt a bit lower! Oh well.

My first formal/posed photos of my USA Kilts Marton Mills tartan tweed kilt.
I've been selling off my extra jackets and sporrans to purchase this Margaret Morrison sporran to go with this outfit.

it is beautiful
I love the tartan you chose, it is beautiful. I am wondering why you chose 5 yards as opposed to 8, was it to use it in warm environments?
